Testimonies
"Being a part of the Delta House's After-School Program and a parent volunteer for the last three years, I know it is a safe place for my daughter between the hours of 3:00 and 6:00 PM. I enjoyed working with the program and participating, so it was cultural opening the kids' eyes, going to New Orleans, and being a part of LEAAP and LEAF is awesome. The jazz band helped my daughter become a member in the high school band. They use the same skills they help them play in school. I enjoy seeing the kids show their talent and have the community's support. If other parents see me supporting the program, they will be able to come and help by supporting their kids."

"I like the Delta House because it is fun, and you get to do activities, play music, cook, go to new places, do artwork, and get to learn new things. If you are at home and doing nothing, you should come to the Delta House, and you will have fun." Danielle, 12th Grade
"I like the Delta House because some of my friends are here, and I thought they had cool jazz music. I do not have to go to another after-school program, and you get to go to different places." Rajinder, 12th Grade
I love coming to Delta House because I can get help with my homework, play in the jazz band and have fun with my friends." Nekai, 6th Grade
